Digital radiology has provided the clinician with the ability to store and manipulate radiographic information. The purpose of this paper is to present two applications of digital imaging to implantology. The first application is a personal computer-based imaging technique which can be used to plan the placement of endosseous dental implants using three-dimensional computed tomography images obtained with commercial software. The second application uses digital subtraction radiography to assess longitudinal bony change around dental implants.
